i had issues with the lights and ended up with this for the moment,not ideal but like the look but the gap is an issue and have a spare set in case and swop the ccfls over too on to them.

ye was looking at laminex myself, this stuff is legal isnt it as it lets the light through so im told? maybe wrong.

Personally i would run osram nightbreakers or hids with them to compensate the lost light and not too dark either.
its not illegal as far as i know but doing them really dark would be asking for trouble though

maybe laminex them too dark tint

I used flyeye on my E46 lights front, back & sides but eventually got smoked sides & rears. I had really reflective indicators so should have bought some alternatives, plus I also have silver interior plastics and bought a black set to swap them over. As I knew I was getting rid of it as this is my old car so didn't bother swapping them

even so it still looks very dark (even more so from an angle as you can see by the drivers headlight) on a dull day/dusk etc yet still lets most of the light through and is clearly visible

got to do it all on my new one but was thinking of mixing it with a very light spray tint and flyeye but will also look at this laminex you mention

has anyone ever wrapped the interiors with that carbon vinyl or does it not look good?
